Biography

Hello and welcome to The Lighter Side of Sci-Fi, my wacky cartoon universe where anything can happen to any one of our much beloved sci-fi villains, heroes & robots. My name is Tye Bourdony - (lightersidescifi@aol.com) and I am the creator of The Lighter Side of Sci-Fi. My freelance satire career began with issue #263 of Starlog and has gone on to include work on many internet web sites as well Parsec Magazine, the Star Trek Communicator, Cracked and most recently Sci-Fi Magazine.

I have been a regular on the North Eastern science fiction & comic book convention circuit and have met many a friend in the varied gatherings, parties & dealer rooms. The convention circuit is for me, the first and best place to not only meet other Sci-Fi fans, but to also be the great fan that I am in my heart.

Tye

I have also had the chance to meet a great number of the genres favorite, and not so favorite celebrities. To my delight, I have even been blessed with the opportunity to do satire and 3D stereoscopic work for a number of them, and in turn; they have all been wonderfully gracious and accommodating.

I hope you will enjoy my satire universe, and should I make you laugh; I would invite you to return again and again for some more cheap and enjoyable therapy. (It works for me...)
